76 Crown Princess (2/2)
Although he fancied XuanRong, he did not want his plans to be interrupted just because of a woman. Although he was currently the Crown Prince, the battle of the crown was very fierce. His, Xu Ji An's woman should not only satisfy his needs as a man but should also be able to support him to get the throne. Although XuanRong was into his liking and had the XiangFu and Chen Fu as backing, she was a ticking bomb. The Chen family already holds a great military power. His Imperial Father would definitely be alerted once one of the princes get tied with their family. Xu Ji An knew his father. He was a paranoid man who was always suspicious towards other people, even he and his siblings had to be careful in terms of wielding political power. If he would get involved with XuanRong, it would bring him more harm than benefit.
”What is MuHou saying? Er' Chen was just curious. MuHou, rest assured, the woman that will become the future Crown Princess will be a woman that could help Er' Chen reach the throne.”
Hearing Xu Ji An's words, Empress Wei sighed in relief. She did not want her only child to self-destruct and become foolish due to love.

In a huge tree outside the Chen's residence, two silhouettes were standing on its branches.
Shadow had been crying inside since morning. He looked at His Lordship who was standing like a statue while facing the residence's gate. His Lordship had been standing like this since morning. He neither took a small break to pee or eat nor move from his original position.
'Is he still human?'
Shadow inwardly cursed his luck.
He was a spy for heaven's sake!
Since His Lordship did not leave, he, his shadow, could only accompany him!
He wanted to scream and beg for this great ancestor to leave and return to the residence. Once that man finds out that His Lordship once again disappeared, for sure, he would flip the entire country!
Shadow remembered Yue Shin's instructions. He must not let His Lordship act willful like what he did inside Lady Xuan's bedroom.
Heavens! What happened that night almost killed him! Yue Shen got angry to the point that his lowly self could only crawl out of the punishment tower.
*sob* *sob*
”Your Lordship, this servant thinks that Lady Xuan will stay in Chen Fu----”
Before Shadow could even finish his sentence, XuanRong's carriage left the Chen residence. Shadow immediately turned his head to look at his great ancestor and found out that the man was already missing.
'Oh Fuck.'

[1]. 'This Child'
[2]. 'Imperial Mother'- what imperial children would call to the empress regardless whether she is their birth mother or not.
[3]. (Imperial Concubine Dowager)- an Imperial Concubine of a previous Emperor while 'Tai Hou' means (Empress Dowager).
[4]. Pedophilia is very common in ancient times (because a fifty years old ojisan looks like a thirty years old hot oppa). That is the reason why Xu Ji Mo is way older than Xu Fei Yi and why Xu Ji An is only two-three years younger than the ML.
